]]>Start by sifting two cups of powdered sugar (or as much as you want to use) into a mixing bowl. Sifting it will help avoid clumping and make it easier to mix up.
Drizzle your liquid in slowly as you whisk, or add in tablespoons and whisk after each addition. As soon as you get a pourable consistency, stop adding liquid. Glaze that’s too thin won’t stick to your pastry, so be sure to keep a close eye on how thick it is and don’t add too much liquid. Finally, add your flavoring and you’re ready to pour! Be sure your cake or cookies are completely cooled before pouring on the glaze, or it will melt.
There are lots of options for flavor, the most common being vanilla extract or lemon juice for a lemon glaze. But there are lots of other options you can try out, such as coffee, liqueur, or other fruit juice.
